[edit] Image:Oswald shot by Ruby (Pulitzer).jpg
Hi. When you get a chance, I'm interested to know if you wrote to Robert H. Jackson about his famous copyrighted photo. Are you familiar with the previous discussion about it and that it had been deleted from wikipedia multiple times before? Thanks, -- Infrogmation 21:04, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

This file may be deleted. |
Thanks for uploading Image:Gladiator(Triumph).jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ResurgamII 21:52, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 3rd Battalion 3rd Marines GA nomination
Palm dogg, User:Rlevse provided a list of specific suggestions for the 3/3 article's GA nomination on its talk page. After addressing these suggestions, looks like its good to go. — ERcheck (talk) 23:16, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
- All the citations, refs, etc. are completed. I noticed that you moved the Skaggs image into the "Notable Marines" section. Unfortunately, for smaller screens, it make the table render poorly. I'm inclined to leave out the image. What do you think? — ERcheck (talk) 01:09, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
-
- I'm not sure yet about a better place for the image. There is a picture Sgt Robert E. O'Malley, the first USMC Vietnam War MOH recipient, receiving the award from LBJ here. Unfortunately, there is not sufficient information to ascertain the copyright status of the picture. — ERcheck (talk) 02:19, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
- Final things to do for 3/3 GA
- Note left on the 3/3 talk page — "1)first para WWII still has no ref, 2) first para 1991-2004 has no ref and it should as it list several details, 3) only a couple web refs have retrieve dates..." I'll try to take care of #3. Can you take care of #1 and #2. — ERcheck (talk) 03:47, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
- Promoted
- The 3/3 article has officially been promoted to GA status. Good work! Stay safe. — ERcheck (talk) 00:01, 28 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Images for 3/3
Which image do you think best represents 3/3? (It is being considered for being featured on the USMC Portal. — ERcheck (talk) 00:16, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
- I looked at Image:Engaging the Enemy.jpg. It is a nice image and would make a good "Selected picture". But, I'm struggling with how to use it as the image for a selected article. Take a look at the Portal to see an example. Preferrable, the image would be something that is iconic for the 3/3, or represents something that is in the lead paragraph. (Anyway to show "America's Battalion" with an image? ;-) Something from the WW2 when they were activated? I'd rather see a combat image than a training image, for example:
Here is another image you might consider for 3/3.[1]
Here is another recent image from Afghanistan [2]. Do you think you can incorporate this into the 3/3 article? The caption could include recent deployments, including Afghanistan, which this would represent well. The contrast with the snow makes the image very interesting. — ERcheck (talk) 02:35, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Battle of Badr
Palm dogg, I'm trying to quit WP. It's breaking my heart, just like it's broken yours. You write a good, fair article and immediately the people with agendas arrive to munge it. The Shi'a are trying to rewrite early Islamic history, Hizb ut Tahrir is marching all over any articles dealing with the caliphate, the Islamophobes want to plaster pictures of Muhammad everywhere, just to show those dang Muslims that we don't care what they think!, the Indian and Pakistani nationalists are mano-a-mano ... if people are killing each other over anything in real life, they play out their conflicts here too.
If you have the heart to try to fight the tide, and want quotes from Ibn Ishaq, I have Guillaume's reconstruction/translation in English. I also have the relevant volume of Al-Tabari in the SUNY edition. Email me (klofstrom@gmail.com) if you need quotes from either. Zora 00:26, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think Larry Sanger has what it takes to nurture a new community. I haven't been too impressed by his public comments, or what has leaked about Citizendium. But I could be wrong. I'd like to be wrong. If you trust your friend, give it a try and tell me how it turns out. Zora 04:14, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
